Invitrogen™ HPF (Hydroxyl Radical and Peroxynitrite Sensor) 

Description

Aminophenyl fluorescein (APF, A36003) and hydroxyphenyl fluorescein (HPF), two reactive oxygen species (ROS) indicators developed by T. Nagano, offer greater specificity and stability than dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (H₂DCFDA, D399). APF and HPF show limited non-selective reactivity and relatively high resistance to light-induced oxidation.

• Fluorescein derivatives are nonfluorescent until they react with hydroxyl radical or peroxynitrite anion
• APF will also react with hypochlorite anion
• Two ROS indicators can selectively detect hypochlorite anion
• Upon oxidation, both APF and HPF exhibit bright green fluorescence (excitation/ emission maxima ∼490/515 nm), making them compatible with any instrument that can detect fluorescein
